Since its original debut, the design has had a fresh coat of paint, aligning it with the updated Qantas styling.

Even though the app has some pretty useful such as a push live tile for individual flight updates, mobile checkins and mobile boarding pass, the app won’t be too useful for anyone who don’t have a booking or frequent flyer membership as there’s no flight search functionality.

Overall, Qantas should be applauded for shipping a pretty functional and polished app joining a small list of airlines who now have a native WP7 app.

Finally. I kept searching in the marketplace for this app thinking “wait, where is it. I swear i saw this at a conference”.

But as Long said, it is missing the main feature I wanted / needed. Being able to search for flights. If i have friends on Qantas flights, i want to be able to search and pin that flight, so that I know about delays, etc.

David…. really, your main use for the app is to track other people’s flights? If they’re a close friend you can always add their booking into the app (they would of course have to share you their booking reference).

What’s with the delay of announcing Windows Phone 7 apps, and actually delivering them? Pandora still isn’t out yet either. Microsoft really needs to step it up here. There’s still many popular apps not availalbe through the Marketplace yet.
